A little forlorn, Laira left Elpsis to go find her own quarters winding her way through the labyrinthine passages of the Scarlet Destiny to get back to the common area that Firemane had given to the Resistance Cell accompanying them. When she entered most of them were still awake, sitting in the circular chamber, though Captain Ul, Probabat Shun, and Ur'dax were missing from the motley assortment of rebels. "Hey guys," she said waving her hand at the Death Troopers and former Galactic Alliance Guards that made up the two teams in the group's assault section.
"Hey, did you find out anything new?" Leo, she liked him, asked with interest sparking across his features.
"Oh, yeah. There is a fairly powerful Sith Cult on the planet that worship Darth Vader, and a sect of Yuuzhan Vong led rebels fighting against the Dominion. That symbol was some kind of Vader-esque marking." Her voice was tired, and the redhead was more than a little disappointed. Leo had stood and walked over to her, rubbing her shoulders. That was probably why he was her favorite. All the others were the stereotypical machismo which she had grew up around. So bland as far as personality even if they didn't make bad friends. Leo was a little softer, a little more emotional. She let out a small sigh and let him push her towards one of the couches where she could sit down and he could keep massaging her while she talked.
"Sounds like the current plan is to, oh, just a little lower sweetie, is to, yeah, thank you. Is to meet with the Dominion forces and try to get an ally. Oh." She managed under some duress as Leo's hands pressed into the muscles of her back.
"They do know we laid waste to one of their bases right?" Stalgis asked, raising his eyebrows.
"Yeah, as far as I know they do, but given what Mara said about them, I don't think they are all that worried about a handful of clones being killed when the gain is allies with Hyperspace tech." Most of the Death Troopers nodded in acknowledgement, they'd worked for a government that used clones. Normally, the higher ups didn't worry so much about how many clones died and given their former allegiance, the high ups were very flexible on their doctrines when it benefited them.
The conversation continued, mostly just stories and banter until Laira and Leo ended up making out on the couch. That drove most of the others out of the room, with Geva departing with her own intentions and someone in tow. It wasn't much longer that Laira retired to her own bedroom, alone, though Leo had gotten to second base in the process. The redhead made a note to introduce him to Elpsis, even if it would feel weird she had the desire to get Elpsis's approval before she got serious with anyone.

When her alarm buzzed she groaned, rolling over to slap the chrono angrily. Less than a minute later there was a knock on her door, "Laira, you need to report before the Captain comes in." It was Leo, looking out for her so she didn't get yelled at. Sleeping in was apparently a sign of misconduct in the military, something she would have to rectify if she ever made a command rank. At least Leo was sweet enough to notice those loud discussions hurt her feelings. The Jedi Princess swung out of bed and rose to her feet, quickly using her private sonic shower before dressing in her flight suit. Five minutes from passed out to fully dressed was awful but impressive.
It wasn't but a minute after she had reported, that Elpsis came to check on her. Laira sauntered out of line up to give Elpsis a hug. "Hiya honeybuns! How'd you sleep?"
